I used to get oral thrush when I was little. used to be given some yucky pastilles to sort it out

I had it nearly all through the later stages of my pregnancy & my mouth was sooooooo sore! I got prescribed nystatin which I had to gargle but that didnt work so I them got daktarin & that kept it at bay....it finally went for good when I had Livi

Katie had oral thrush a couple of weeks back.

The nurse practicioner gave her dactarin gel. It cleared it up within days and she loved the taste!
